== | ==Technical details== | ||
Bell Labs created Plan 9 to be a successor of Unix and to take the Unix idea of simplicity even further. Everything can be accessed as files: network connections and resources, processes, devices, files. The name of the OS is named after the movie Plan 9 from Outer Space. | |||
==Character details== | |||
Plan 9-tan is portrayed as an eccentric rabbit-eared girl with horn-rimmed or square glasses, short white hair, and pale eyes. She mainly wears form-fitting space suits in grey and white. In formal dress, she wears a low-cut gown modeled after Vampira's. | |||
Her bunny ears white hair and white suits are references to Plan 9's mascot, Glenda. Her formal dresses, space ship and that she is a necromancer are also references to Plan 9 from Outer Space. | |||

She is described as 'alien', or, 'just plain weird, and having no sense for aesthetics to most other OS-tans, the latter referencing Plan 9's less than elegant GUI. | ||
=== | ===Family and relationships=== | ||
Her attitude towards UNIX in the present day is ambivalent. She doesn't want to fight her, and deep down she wants to see UNIX as her mother and not an enemy. She still condemns her mother's actions in the Unix Wars, but is upset at the thought of hating her instead of just her actions, or what she became at that point. She still leads the User Space Gang, in part because it's fun for her and her friends, but also in protest of UNIX's (and the main branch's) hardlined and stuffy attitudes. | |||

Plan 9-tan is one of [[UNIX | UNIX's]] daughters and was to be the heir to her dynasty. She admired Unix at first and wanted to be just like her (referencing Plan 9 being 'more Unix than Unix') but disagreed with her actions during the Unix wars. She complied for a while in the wars, but what finally set her off was reported Xenix's death in the war to UNIX, and was appalled by UNIX's indifference. | |||
She did not want to be UNIX's heir if it meant going against her own ideals, conforming to the things she hates and having to harm her family further. Plan 9-tan left and teamed up with [[FreeBSD | FreeBSD-tan]], [[OpenBSD | OpenBSD-tan]] and [[NetBSD | NetBSD-tan]] and started their own faction. | |||
She now also has a daughter ([[Inferno | Inferno-tan]]), a clone ([[Plan B | Plan B-tan]]) and a granddaughter/clone ([[Octopus | Octopus-tan]]). | She now also has a daughter ([[Inferno | Inferno-tan]]), a clone ([[Plan B | Plan B-tan]]) and a granddaughter/clone ([[Octopus | Octopus-tan]]). | ||
